历史

In November 1923 the Catholic Archbishop of Sydney, Michael Kelly and the Bishops of New South Wales issued a pastoral letter that drew attention to the advantages of university education for the Catholic community and announced that a Catholic Women’s College would be built and Sancta Sophia College was founded as a residential college in 1925. 

The first students moved into the Hall in its current location on Missenden Road, on 15 March 1926. There were 23 women in the first cohort of students, three of them student nuns, and 20 lay students. In 1929, the Hall was raised by Act of Parliament to the status of a College within the University of Sydney. It remained under the administration of the Religious of the Sacred Heart until 1991 when the first lay Principal, Mrs Janice Raggio, was appointed. A detailed history of Sancta Sophia College, Wisdom Built Herself a House by Marie Kennedy RSCJ, was published in 1997 and is available for purchase from the College.
